hey guys,
I feel stressed up, in a positive way, but my body doesn’t like it. I just stopped taking antibiotics and now it already starts again…what a crap. Have been healthy during all those winter months and as soon as I start working…;)
Anyway…no need to be unhappy. We (me and four other people from the publishing company) have been at a soccer match in Düsseldorf last night. What a stadium, I wouldn’t have expected something like that. It was awesome. 3:1 against Switzerland and on the way home we sang “Ihr seid nur ein Käselieferant, Käselieferant, Käselieferant” on the train. You gals are fun :)
The last days have been fun all the way: having some music sessions with my new roommate, cooking delicious (ehem) food and moreover I even found some people to go dancing with on saturday nights.
That’s all for now, just some fun, no deep thoughts today (so sorry ;)…

One can think of Nickelback’s music whatever he wants to, but this song’s lyrics are just amazing. Some day not too long ago I read an interesting sentence in a book (as always I forgot the title) saying that if there is no deeper sense in this world and our lives then the only way for us to give it some sense is to fill this world with as much love as we can. Nice thought :) (though still not completely satisfying, at least not for me)
I hope that one day when I’m 70 or 80 I can say that with almost every step I took my love for people around me grew a little bit. We are so small (”and as we lie beneath the stars…”) and our greatest gift is the ability to love. I hope that we won’t let this ability die in the middle of day-to-day life and bad experiences but that we will feed it with as many good experiences, wise decisions, time for others and friendly words as we can. We will always fail, but luckily love includes forgiveness :)
We went to a nice park today where you have a great view over parts of the city and the Ruhr. Amazing. What a shame that I don’t have my photo camera here. It’s sunny, quite warm, simply perfect for going for a walk. Every day should be like that. The weekend has gone by quickly, there are candles burning at my window as I look down on the street, there’s a good book waiting for me and many letters to my beloved ones.
Hoping for more days like this one!
Corinna
PS: The sky is blue today…

When I look out of my window I see the grey sky. The first week in Witten is over. The first saturday that I spent here, someone’s around almost all the time. No time for depression, but maybe this is just distraction.
Sometimes I wonder if I even want times to be wonderful. It only hurts a lot more when they are over. Why do things have to be over anyway? I’m grateful though, this is a new experience and it’s a good one. I have to say thanks to my roommates: you guys made it easy for me to start over. I’m happy I met you! What a shame that you, Illona, are moving out already, what a fun time we had.
Also had a great chat with a friend I hadn’t talked to for a long time, awesome deep conversation, I’ve missed that lately. There aren’t too many people to talk to like that…unfortunately.
The grey sky should fade away soon…I haven’t seen the sun for more than a week. It doesn’t fit into my days anymore, the grey sky, it should turn blue, step by step. The light at the end of the grey sky.
